Who cares? it was daytime and doors slam themselves sometimes because of wind or hinges may be messed up. Unless she does it everyday it really is irrelevant. He just used that because he doesn't like black people and probably hates when OP has a black boyfriend or friends come by.

I cared to know more details, that's why I asked. Why are you mad? If you're slamming doors for no reason then don't get mad when neighbors start coming after you *shrug*

I'm "mad" because it's very clear from the story that the guy did not care about the door or the dog. Did you skip the "look at you" portion of the exchange??? Questioning the most insignificant part while skipping the blatant racism.

that guy is a racist asshole. How many units are in your building? It seems odd that everyone hates you when they don't know anything about you. It must be a very small complex to attract all like minded racists.

All of the neighbors I exchanged pleasantries and drink nights with have moved but I don't get how apt complex ppl can hate one another aside from noise, there's really not any contact since we all come and go at different times. You've been there for years, don't let them run you off, who gives a sh*t about neighbors?

Nine units. The white woman and mexican guy have been living here before me. The people currently in the building have all been living here for at least 2 years. Me and the white woman NEVER got along. We hate each other's guts. She introduced herself to every single person who moved in this building but me - I have watched it her doing so all the 5 years I lived here.

I only say hello to people, I honestly really don't care about neighbors, never did in my whole life.

I had to run because my dog was outside by himself.he could have been attacked by another dog or kidnapped

Unfortunately one of the downsides of living in apartments is dealing with neighbors. Like the other poster said, just try to be pleasant. Don't feed into any of the negativity by responding because clearly he has no problem with stepping to women.

I have to ask, why did you slam the door? Also, I doubt the building
groups together and talks about you. If they do, then why is it that HE
knows about what everyone thinks unless he's the damn ring leader. If
there is NOTHING you did any of them, then their conversation wouldn't
be long at all. If there is infact gossip about you then perhaps you can
assess if there are any behaviors you can be exuding that can be
rubbing neighbors the wrong way.

I have to say, you standing
there arguing with him (regardless of you not cursing and head rolling)
did feed the "ghetto" stereotype in HIS mind. I know..I
know...but we can't fight city hall. We can simply walk past someone
while we're busy and not say "hi" then suddenly it's "Tammy has such a
bad attitude all the time. She's always pissed" .
ANYWAYS, if this is the first you've noticed a neighbor having a
complaint and haven't had any other issues with anyone else I would just
brush it off, be mindful of my actions, and keep living my life.

The ringleader is actually the white woman and the mexican. They throw bbq and what not and has never invited me, but everyone else except the fat old Cuban woman were there. I have heard they saying negative things about neighbors who moved out (2 gay black guys as a matter of fact, but those guys had a serious fight one time where they broke the window and everyone had a reason to be scared thought).

I think they talk about me on those events.

I think he just wanted to attack me, because even though I was arguing with him I never cussed or threatened him.

Exactly. His problem is not the dog. I work from home, it is impossible my dog is barking all day when I am here and I don't like the barking myself. The door slamming may have been upsetting but thing is, he went far by not only accusing me of doing it all the time, but also by telling me I have a bitchy attitude.
